6. Media lies and war

I thought you might like to read a blog by John Pilger about how the corporate-owned media manufacture lies in order to comply with warmongering government agendas. Yes, I'm talking about the United States, the sole military superpower. For those of you who have never heard of John Pilger, now is the time to get to know him. He's an Australian journalist who reports on the plight of the downtrodden and cuts through the lies and deceptions of so-called democratic governments with extraordinary clarity and insight. It is no exaggeration to say that reading Pilger in any depth will permanently change your view and understanding of the world - and ensure that your prior naivete never returns!
